I suspect I'm missing something because once within the folders, Dolphin properly recognizes the characters....even so far as writing Arabic and Hebrew "backward"....I wonder.... Sure enough. If I use the glob.glob() non-unicode characters (\x93\xbe) on the command line, Dolphin understands it just fine. Thanks all.
